| bacteriological findings in 25 patients with reiter's syndrome (reactive arthritis). | extensive bacteriological testing was performed in 25 patients with complete or incomplete reiter's syndrome. in 21 patients (84%), evidence of antecedent infection was found, based on culture and/or serological findings. thus, infection with chlamydia trachomatis (17 patients), yersinia enterocolitica, serotype 3 (4 patients), and campylobacter jejuni (1 patient) was identified. | 1983 | 6602373 |
| reactive arthritis after campylobacter jejuni enteritis. a case report. | a 36-year-old hla b 27 positive woman developed reactive type arthritis a week after enterocolitis. stool culture and serological tests indicated campylobacter jejuni infection. serological evidence of previous chlamydial infection was also obtained. the arthritis ran a benign course of 6 months, leaving no residual symptoms. | 1983 | 6602375 |
| hla-b27-negative arthritis related to campylobacter jejuni enteritis in three children and two adults. | five out of 37 patients with proven campylobacter jejuni enteritis developed arthritis. two adult patients presented with classical reiter's syndrome. one of the three children had reactive arthritis, and clinical suspicion of septic arthritis could not be confirmed in two. the acute synovitis subsided usually without treatment in all patients within 3-7 days, while arthralgia persisted longer in 4 patients. hla-b27 was not present in the 5 patients with arthritis, but was found in 4 others. in ... | 1983 | 6605028 |
| gram-negative bacteria and b27 disease. | the role of infection in ankylosing spondylitis is speculative and different studies by several groups have yielded conflicting results. the role of infection, however, in reactive arthritis and reiter's syndrome is well established. the grampian region has experienced three outbreaks of gastroenteritis, two due to campylobacter jejuni and one due to salmonella typhimurium. these outbreaks have allowed a study of reactive arthritis in the affected population following these infections. these stu ... | 1983 | 6606475 |
| [the reactive arthritis syndrome. rheumatological limits]. | the term reactive arthritis (ra) refers to an inflammatory joint disease in the absence of bacteria in the joint, but which is caused by a distant extra-articular infection. they occur as a result of a variety of infections, which are essentially genital or gastro-intestinal in subjects with a particular genetic predisposition characterized by the presence of the hla-b27 antigen or one of the creg group of antigens (b7 - b27 - bw22 - bw42). the most complete clinical expression of reactive arthr ... | 1983 | 6607499 |
| [reactive arthritis caused by non-yersinia intestinal infections]. | aseptic arthritis can occur following intestinal infections due to shigella, salmonella, campylobacter jejuni and clostridium difficile. these rheumatisms are rare, only occurring in about 1 p. cent of cases, generally in patients with the hla-b27 antigen. whatever the causative organism, the arthritis has features in common with all reactive arthrites. they generally have a favourable course. | 1983 | 6607501 |
| exacerbation of b27 positive spondyloarthropathy by enteric infections. | two patients developed reactive arthritis after enteritis secondary to campylobacter jejuni and salmonella group b, respectively. each patient had an established spondyloarthropathy and was hla-b27 positive. while enteric pathogens are widely reported to cause reactive arthritis, these patients illustrate that exacerbations of arthritic syndromes may also be precipitated. our findings support the concept that abnormalities of bowel flora may affect the course of b27 associated arthropathies | 1984 | 6607996 |
| [mic test of campylobacter jejuni/coli]. | using 3 kinds of medium, mueller-hinton (m-h) agar, m-h agar added with defibrinated horse blood and lysed horse blood, susceptibilities of campylobacter were tested quantitatively to 12 antibacterial agents. the result showed no remarkable difference between them. mic was examined with the cell concentration of mcfarland unit 0.5 and 100-times dilution, and there was no significant difference between them except for 2 strains, on which erythromycin showed mic of 6.25 micrograms/ml at mcfarland ... | 1983 | 6609250 |
| campylobacter enteritis. a 3-year experience. | campylobacter jejuni was isolated from 135 infants and children seen at the oklahoma children's memorial hospital over a 3-year period. the comparative frequency of isolation of c. jejuni, salmonella, and shigella were 1.5 percent, 2.2 percent, and 3.1 percent, respectively. campylobacter enteritis was most prevalent during the warm months from may to october, peaking in july. seventy percent of the afflicted children were 2 years old or younger; only 13 percent were older than 5 years. there we ... | 1984 | 6609793 |
| [sensitivity of campylobacter jejuni/coli to 11 antibiotics]. | the antimicrobial susceptibility of 106 strains of campylobacter jejuni/coli recovered from animals and humans was studied using broth microdilution panel. human and animal strains exhibit similar susceptibility, with the exception of the strains from pigs which are more resistant to erythromycin and clindamycin. among the hippurate negative strains (c. coli), these strains are also recognizable from those recovered from other hosts. | 1984 | 6611534 |
| age related susceptibility to campylobacter jejuni infection in a high prevalance population. | in a year long prospective study of diarrhoea in children under 2 years of age in soweto, south africa, campylobacter jejuni was isolated in 18 of 60 children under 9 months of age with diarrhoea, compared with 4 of 60 age matched controls. in the older children, 16 of 51 children with diarrhoea and 17 of 51 control children excreted this organism in their faeces. these results indicate a change in susceptibility to c jejuni in children over 9 months of age. campylobacter enteritis in the young ... | 1983 | 6614976 |

| identification and characterization of campylobacter jejuni outer membrane proteins. | outer membrane proteins from isolates of campylobacter jejuni were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. sarcosinate-insoluble membrane preparations were outer membrane enriched based on increased ketodeoxyoctonate concentrations, the presence of surface-exposed 125i-labeled proteins that were hydrophobic, and similarity to membrane vesicle (bleb) sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis profiles. most isolates contained a single major band with ... | 1983 | 6618667 |
| extended scheme for serotyping campylobacter jejuni: results obtained in israel from 1980 to 1981. | the serotyping scheme for campylobacter jejuni previously developed in the national center for campylobacter, jerusalem, was extended by the use of 20 new sera and modified by the absorption of the sera, when necessary, with homologous boiled cultures or heterologous live cultures. the extended scheme is based on slide agglutination of live suspensions and is performed in two stages: pretesting with four pooled sera and final testing with monovalent sera. so far, 34 serotypes have been recognize ... | 1983 | 6619282 |
| electron microscopy of the coccoid form of campylobacter jejuni. | confluent cultures of campylobacter jejuni incubated for 24 and 48 h each were examined by electron microscopy. although the 24-h-old cells exhibited typical curved morphology, the 48-h-old cells showed rounded morphology with a loss of cell integrity. this appeared to be an autolytic process that occurred very rapidly after the culture became mature. these results confirm previous evidence that the coccoid form of this organism is a degenerate state. | 1983 | 6619291 |

| campylobacter enteritis associated with recurrent abortions in agammaglobulinemia. | campylobacter enteritis and habitual abortions occurred in a 28-year-old patient suffering from agammaglobulinemia. campylobacter jejuni has been recently recognized to be a common treatable cause of diarrhea in man. since bacterial overgrowth of the small intestine is increased in hypo- or agammaglobulinemia, campylobacter is expected to be found in those patients. as this patient's abortions might have been due to the same infection, campylobacter should be considered in the differential diagn ... | 1983 | 6624401 |
| campylobacter jejuni enteritis: efficacy of antimicrobial and antimotility drugs. | we analyzed retrospectively the illnesses of 82 patients with campylobacter jejuni enteritis to ascertain the efficacy of antimicrobials and drugs that inhibit gastrointestinal motility. forty-four patients were treated with only supportive measures consisting of diet modification and fluids; 22 others received an antimotility agent for at least 48 h; the remaining 16 were given an antimicrobial at or near the time of therapeutic intervention. the three groups were similar in terms of severity o ... | 1983 | 6624735 |
| inhibitory and lethal activities of rosaramicin, erythromycin, and clindamycin against campylobacter fetus subsp jejuni and intestinalis. | in a comparative study of the inhibitory and lethal effects of rosaramicin, erythromycin, and clindamycin on strains of campylobacter fetus subsp jejuni and c intestinalis, c jejuni was more readily killed by rosaramicin and clindamycin than was c intestinalis. erythromycin exhibited an equally lethal effect against both subspecies. however, it was the least active of the macrolides tested against both c jejuni and c intestinalis. | 1983 | 6625312 |
| isolation of campylobacter jejuni from raw milk. | campylobacter jejuni was isolated from raw milk by a method that can routinely detect less than or equal to 1 organism per ml. this procedure was used in a survey of 195 separate farms and showed a 1.5% incidence of c. jejuni in milk from bulk tanks. | 1983 | 6625570 |
| report on an intrafamiliar outbreak of campylobacter enteritis. | an intrafamiliar campylobacter enteritis outbreak is described. from stools of three adults and two children, 5 campylobacter jejuni strains resistant to erythromycin, lincomycin, and tetracycline, were isolated. from the sixth member of the family, a boy, a susceptible strain was isolated. serological responses, measured using a serum bactericidal assay, against autologous and heterologous campylobacters have shown that one strain only, the resistant one, caused the outbreak. the source of infe ... | 1983 | 6626324 |
| serotyping of campylobacter jejuni and campylobacter coli on the basis of thermostable antigens. | hippurate hydrolysis tests performed on the serotype reference strains of the serotyping scheme based on thermostable antigens under development for campylobacter jejuni showed that 42 strains were campylobacter jejuni and 17 were campylobacter coli. moreover, only four (0.2%) of 2025 hippurate positive campylobacter jejuni isolates reacted in campylobacter coli antisera and 12 (4.3%) of the 282 campylobacter coli reacted in campylobacter jejuni antisera. evidently each species has its own array ... | 1983 | 6628376 |
| survival of campylobacter jejuni in the presence of bisulfite and different atmospheres. | the effects of bisulfite, atmospheric oxygen content, and temperature on death of campylobacter jejuni were studied to more fully define the optimum conditions for survival. temperature was the most influential factor affecting survival, death occurring up to eight times more rapidly at 25 degrees c than at 4 degrees c. survival was greater in an oxygen-free environment (100% n2) than in the presence of any level of oxygen, i.e. 5, 21 or 100% o2; however, factors other than oxygen concentration ... | 1983 | 6628377 |
| enhanced isolation of campylobacter jejuni by cold enrichment in campy-thio broth. | isolation of campylobacter jejuni from human feces by direct inoculation to campy-bap (scott laboratories, inc., fiskeville, r.i.) was compared with isolation after overnight enrichment at 4 degrees c in campy-thio broth followed by subculture to campy-bap. of 54 positive specimens, 19 were positive only after enrichment, and 5 were positive only on the direct plate. among 36 positive patients, 10 were detected by enrichment only and 2 by direct plating only. laboratories using campy-bap should ... | 1983 | 6630456 |
